The book will collect short stories from his Blammo series and the various anthologies he has contributed to.

"Noah has a rare ability," said AdHouse's Chris Pitzer. "He makes me want to find and read his comics.

"So when he approached me about working on a collection, it was a no-brainer. He's a hella comic creator."

Van Sciver said: "The stories I'm putting into this book are very meaningful to me, and Adhouse is one of the few publishers I'd trust to present them tastefully. I can't think of one Adhouse book that sucks."

AdHouse will have a presence at SPX in Bethesda, Maryland, this weekend.
